Sunderland's Bridges shopping mall receives two new beauty and food retailers for 2018

The Bridges, Sunderland’s popular shopping centre, has started 2018 off positively with two new retailers.

National chain, Glamour Forever, has extended its presence at the Bridges by opening a new unit next to H&M, offering various beauty services.

The company, which will still retain its kiosk in the mall, is now giving shoppers the option of salon-based nail services, waxing, brow shaping, facials, massages, eyelash extensions and hairdressing.

Andy Bradley, Bridges’ centre director, said: “It’s a real asset to the Bridges having these services available.

“It’s great to have such a wide range of options for shoppers who can now include a range of treatments as part of their visit to us.”

Also opening its doors is The Pasta Factory at Market Square, offering fresh homemade pasta as well as other authentic Italian dishes to eat in or takeaway.

Pasta-making equipment has been brought in from Italy and a range of deli items are also being sold so that shoppers can make dishes at home.

Bradley added: “It’s a great start to 2018 to have two exciting retailers which will bring something new into the centre.

“We are sure both Glamour Forever and The Pasta Factory will be really well received by our shoppers, along with strengthening the already strong retail offering we have.

“We are hoping that this good start will continue throughout the year and that we will have more exciting announcements to make going forward.”
